Sounds like vgaarb should not assume that all devices using VGA are registered drivers. That also sounds like a significantly harder fix. If SR01 is required before disabling VGA, then perhaps we should not disable VGA at all in this case though. That sounds safer, although if VGA was enabled, it will suck a bit more power? -- keith.packard@xxxxxxxxx
